Help Medicaid Question

I was wondering if someone could help with this dilemma I have. I am on Medicaid at the moment and giving birth in December. I am not married but the father is still in my life. He does not live with me, but is over my Apartment all the time. He has a good paying job and has insurance through his company. He could not get me on his plan as we are not married.

After the baby is born, and we have to fill out the birth certificate, Can I put his last name on the Birth Certificate? Will Medicaid come after him for repayment? Should I leave his name off of it?

Once the baby is born, I believe he can add the newborn to his insurance, So I can stop Medicaid. We plan to get married within the year.

I am just worried about the bills and if they would come after him.

Thank you

What will you do about insurance for yourself if you stop Medicaid? I would just put the baby on his insurance and not the Medicaid. Then again, anything can happen, so I would risk whatever price was associated so the baby would be doubly taken care of.

Medicaid does not have to be repaid . Its fine to put the dads name on the birth certificate ! If you were recieving public assistance that would be a different story but medicaid especially the Pcap program is strictly to help you out . They only go by your income .. Your childs father has nothing to do with this lol.
